About the show:
'It is Well with My Soul' is one of the most beloved hymns of all time, with words by Horatio Spafford and music by Philip Bliss. This original musical tells the story of Philip and his wife, Lucy, how at the end of the American Civil War, they end up moving to the growing metropolis of Chicago to make a new life for themselves. It is there they meet lawyer Horatio Spafford and his wife Anna, producer and publisher George Root, and preacher and philanthropist D L Moody. As Philip begins to gain prominence as a soloist and hymn writer, temptation begins to creep in: how will Philip handle the ethical challenges that come with his new life? And how will the Blisses handle the tragic circumstances of the Great Chicago Fire and the loss of the Spafford girls in the sinking of the Ville du Havre? “It is Well with My Soul” invites you to explore the Gospel message of hope, like an anchor for the soul.

In the storms of life, is it well with your soul? Book your tickets to see this exciting new theatrical production and explore this enduring message of true and steadfast faith in the midst of tragedy and suffering.
